Indeed.  A dirty little trick would be to edit $(git 
--exec-path)git-cvsimport and put in your desired changes.

A less ugly solution would be to patch git-cvsimport.perl to add an option 
--into-existing-repository that does not complain when the Git repository 
is already initialized, unless the 'origin' branch exists, too.

Hth,
